Divorce His - Divorce Hers (1973 TV Movie)
2/10
Shot like a super 8: Burtons latest divorce.
23 November 2019
Shot in blurry primary colours, a no- budget vehicle for Burton and Taylor, with as much insight as could fit on the back of an envelope. It's probably on video-tape so the best way to rate is by placing a large magnet on top of the reel. Recorded on that US system designed to get the signal across wide open spaces on VHF so don't expect vivid, realistic fidelity. The Femme-fatale seems to be dressed in a nylon wig that doesn't move- rather like Granny Munster with bottle- blonde highlights! It steals the scene. Burton and Taylor always required a big budget and production values to gloss over some extremely wooden acting. This would have been improved I'd they'd failed to budget for an electric bill.
